If you want to upgrade your breeding stock or claim a young promise for the international showjumping sport in the future, you will have a good time with the fourth edition of Youhorse.auction. On Monday 27 and Tuesday 28 July foals, embryos, broodmares and a stallion will be auctioned online. The bidding starts on Saturday 25 July.

The auction’s theme is ‘World’s Best Breeding’ and that is no exaggeration. Mario Everse and Alan Waldman, themselves breeders of numerous grand prix showjumping horses, bring in the best from their own studfarm. The collection is completed by several foals and mares from third parties.

Mario Evers, who earned the WBFSH title of best breeder of the year 2018 because of the performance of top horse Zinius under Harrie Smolders, confirms the theme World’s Best Breeding. “We have really great bloodlines and even nine direct products of Big Star, which Alan and I owned before he came under the saddle of Nick Skelton to later become Olympic champion. The foals are looking good as well; it’s not just a good story on paper,” he says.
